Briefly introduce French catering.

French cooking is the most influential and distinctive cooking system in the western world. The French monarch has a strong kingship, which reached its peak in the period of Louis XIV. The luxurious atmosphere of the palace is very particular about diet, and various cooking methods flow into the people by imitating nobles. French cooking pays attention to cooking methods and dining etiquette. France is rich in wine (vin) and cheese, which have become essential seasonings for French cooking. About 450 kinds of cheeses with different flavors are produced in all parts of France, and each kind of cheese is named after the village where it was originally invented. Some villages and towns, such as Camembert, can't be found on any ordinary map, but this word representing the name of cheese can be found in any French dictionary or even English dictionary.

French cuisine has different characteristics according to the characteristics of different regions. Olive oil is used in southern coastal areas, aquatic products are used in southern and western coastal areas, and meat is used in northern and eastern areas. Generally speaking, people in China don't like being vegetarian.

The more distinctive foods in France are: frog leg (grenouill), stewed chicken (coq au vin) and French snail (L 'snail); The staple food is bread, and the bread with French characteristics is croissant and baguette.

French people pay great attention to etiquette when eating. Generally speaking, they use a long dining table, and the male and female hosts sit at both ends of the table respectively. Other family members or guests are arranged on both sides of the table in descending order of importance from the hostess side to the host side. Tableware uses knives, forks and spoons of different shapes. There can only be one dish on the table. Only when the last dish is removed can the second dish be served. However, according to the dining situation, all tableware is placed on both sides of the diner's plate and used from outside to inside. Generally speaking, the first course is appetizing soup, followed by cold dishes (Hors-d`? Uvre), followed by the main course (plat de réresistance), and finally the dessert (dessert). Bread can be taken at any time, which is more than the British and Americans consume. Drink liqueur before meals, and serve aquatic products and poultry dishes with dry white wine at meals. Meat dishes with dry red wine. The French consume a lot of wine, which is almost essential for every meal. Unlike British and American laws, minors can also drink alcohol. When visiting a French family, you can't use a bottle of wine and flowers as a gift, just like visiting an American family, which is equivalent to satirizing that the host family doesn't have enough wine and can only use a box of chocolates as a gift. French dining etiquette has become a classic model of western banquets.

French restaurants are famous for their luxurious etiquette and flavor. Almost all the most luxurious and expensive restaurants in major cities in the world are French restaurants. An Englishman once complained that it was cheaper to fly from London to Paris for a meal and then back by plane, and all the travel expenses were added up than to eat a meal in a French restaurant in London.

France is a world-famous food culture country, and different regions of France have different specialties. Because the French attach great importance to food, they need a lot of tableware when eating French food.
